S3 Longitudinal Accel Sensor

[AK30]

Hello,

Can anyone help with this fault code below? The ESP and ABS lights are on pretty much permanently on all the time now. Every time the fault code is cleared it appears when the controller is closed on VAG Com.
The front ABS Sensors were changed about 2 months ago, the brake light switch has been replaced and this seemed to work for about a week. Now I've had a look at the wiring for the sensors and they look ok.
Anyone got any ideas except form getting fleeced by Audi for a new Accel sensor?

Cheers.

Had the same problem with my S3. The only thing that fixed it (and there was a lot of stuff changed over a period of about two months) was a new Longitudinal Sensor.

I figured that would be the case!
Can you remeber the cost involved?
Cheers for the help anyway.
